Razor turtles are easy to raise because they are not too picky about water temperature, water quality and food. They like 25-28 C water temperature, can withstand high temperature, but can not accept too low temperature, so spring and autumn need to open the heating rod to maintain constant temperature. Razor turtles prefer clear, clean water, and it is best for breeders to change the water after each feeding. They like to eat fresh fish and shrimp meat, mealworms and other foods, which breeders can feed them with turtle food.

Razor turtles

are relatively easy to raise. They do not have high requirements for the environment, and their habits are close to those of other terrapins. Breeders only need to provide them with suitable temperature, adequate food and clean water quality to raise them well.

2. How to raise

razor turtles 1. Water temperature: Razor turtles like to live in the water temperature of 25-28 degrees. They can accept the water temperature of about 30-35 degrees, but they can't accept the water temperature below 20 degrees. Therefore, in spring and autumn, the breeder had better turn on the heating rod to keep the temperature.

2. Water quality: Razor tortoises like clean water and do not require high acidity and alkalinity. Breeders can change the water every time they feed. When changing the water, they can clean the carapace with a soft brush.

3. Food: Razor tortoises have mixed feeding habits. Some of the foods they like to eat are fresh fish, shrimp, mealworms, red worms, etc. You can also feed some small shrimps dried in the sun, and then with some pellet feed, you can achieve a balanced nutrition.

4, bask in the sun: Razor tortoise should bask in the sun every day, but the time that bask in should not be too long, had better be controlled inside 1 hour. Frequent sunshine can sterilize and disinfect them, improve their immunity and promote their growth and development. If it is kept indoors, UVA tubes or bulbs can be installed instead of sunlight.
